Custom Desktops Themes on your PC

Im messing with my Desktop theme with WindowsBlind and StyleXP
Here my desktop, theme for now i like dark blue themes, so im just messing and looking around for other themes to try out.




Some reason i cant seem to get my Menu bar to goto the sasme theme style, any idears.??

Mmmmm somethink gone wrong with my XP icons keep moving around when i open explorer, did a google search and side could be a spyware prob, so i downloaded a program to removie any spyware which it found 3 of, then when i did reboot i got blue screen error 2 times, had to select last good configuration to get system back up and running dont know what caused it.??? Im just doiung a system SFC /SCANNOW and coz it has SP3 on the system im having problems getting everythink back to normal, even tho i have just downloaded SP3 pack..

could it be the Theme packs that screwed me up, i cant see it, myself, but im working on trying to fix the problem, or if fails may have to format PC Drive and start fresh again.. lucky my system dont have much on it this time.

Edited.. Think i found the problem. was a HyperDesk custom theme problem, ive removed it, and checkingto see if it still keeps happening ..

Honestly, I wouldn't use window blinds. It heavily impacts computer performance and the interface coolness isn't worth it. I use a hack for windows themes and a simplistic custom theme on my computer and I don't suffer any performance loss.

[steveuk]

think ya might be right there about proformance, as my COD5 seems slow now.lol could be The Windows Blind program, but could be somethink else effecting the game.. still im going to format HD tomorrow and start fresh again.......Just hope i save my COD5 Profiles this time.lol

The main reason I haven't had any themes e.t.c like that is performance. Also, I don't care much what my desktop looks like.

Indeed, it's all about how fit the girl is on your wallpaper.

There is a Windows 7 already out.. im not saying where, or what version , coz it caused me problems when i said about the COD-WAW Leak befor...lol But ive seen the links to the download....How ever i can tell you it is the following version.

Windows 7 32Bit Build 6801 Pre-Beta (looks shit to me)(.lol)




I could download it, but im not going to, im fed up keep messing with beta's and formatting my Hard Drives.lol Just formatted it last nite again coz XP was causing problems , so i installed original version and installed the Alienware Desktop theme. and look the menu Bar is how i wanted it..lol..
